Well yes; however as a gui interface for a document that I have to make 
swift progress with Lyx is not a gui where I am able to hit return a 
couple of times to make more space etc. etc.

I would very much like the increased control; however this exemplifies 
the difference between M$ and Unix.  The greater control is there but 
there is a much larger learning curve once you move away from linuxconf 
etc. etc.
